Color doppler is not the Diagnostic test for pre eclampsia.though some markers can predict.
There are a couple of blood tests and urine test to rule that out

Hello ,
Colour Doppler is used as a predictor or screening test for preeclampsia . The changes in colour Doppler in the uterine artery are used as a predictor . But colour Doppler is not diagnostic test for preeclampsia.
Blood pressure , urine protein or albumin along with other blood tests like platelet count , liver function test help in diagnosis .
